This is one of the most competitive title races in Scotland in recent history and Celtic would feel they have their work cut out as they bid to win a third consecutive league title under Brendan Rodgers.<\/p>\n
They are currently 3 points ahead of Rangers who are their main title rivals this season as Steven Gerard looks to topple his former manager.<\/p>\n
The Bhoys lost their last game of last year before going on a warm weather training camp.<\/p>\n
They have returned more refreshed and head into this game having won all of their last three games in all competitions, we expect this game to be a similar outcome for them.<\/p>\n
St Johnstone have been in and out of the Scottish top flight for a while now but they seem to have stabilized and would be looking to finish inside the top six this season.<\/p>\n
The visitors come into this game in the sixth position.<\/p>\n
That position was helped by a run of 4 straight wins, they would be looking to get back to winning ways after suffering a 2-0 loss to Hearts the last time out.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
